Robert Bowling’s venture known as Robotoki has been developing a new title that is called Human Element. We have talked about Human Element before and from what we have seen of it so far it looks pretty promising.

Since Robotoki and Nexon splitting ways after it was decided by the developers that they wanted to focus on a premium version and not on and free-to-play version which put the goals of the two companies in conflict. It was announced that Robotoki was working on a new publishing deal and apparently the deal has been yet to be finalized.

Bowling confirmed in a statement today that Robotoki has shut its doors and Human Element has been put on hiatus because it is impossible for Bowling to continue to fund the development of the game out of his own pocket while he works on getting a deal finalized. (A new publisher was supposed to have been announced in December)

Human Element is being developed using the CryEngine and it was on track for a release in November of 2015, but now those plans too seem to be up in the air. Since the development has been suspended, it is likely that unless Bowling is able to close a new publishing and funding deal, Human Element might be at risk of never getting release and that sure what be a shame. We will update you when we learn more.

Robert Bowling, who most Call of Duty fans know from his work with that franchise, has departed to start his own studio, which is called Robotoki. He announced that the first game from Robotoki would be a title called Human Element, which is described as a post-zombie-apocalyptic shooter.

Now, Bowling has confirmed that OUYA gamers will get first access to Human Element when it arrives as an episodic prequel that will set the stage for the eventual release of Human Element in 2015. It will be exclusive for OUYA.

This is the first exclusive that has been confirmed for OUYA. In addition, from the way that we understand it, this also means that OUYA will also get Human Element in 2015 when it is released. Of course, this is great news for the OUYA, and it should also drive other developers toward making announcements of commitments to build titles for the OUYA.

There is still time to secure the limited number of first-run consoles. With backers numbering over 40,000 and having raised over $5 million in support and with almost 3 weeks left to gain additional backers, we see this project to continue to gain momentum.

Infinity Ward departee, Robert Bowling, has finally announced what his new studio will be working on. Bowling’s new studio, which is known as Robotoki, is working on a new title with the central focus around Zombies and survival; it will be called Human Element.

Human Element is in development for the PC as well as the next generation of console systems. It is planned for a 2015 release. (Yes, developers are already planning for titles that are going to be released in 2015.)

Human Element will be an action-focused title that allows players to experience a number of skill sets while trying to achieve a common goal. A publishing deal for Human Element was not announced, but it is expected to be announced at a later date.
